Oceans – A Good Day
I love the ocean. I grew up on the prairie and in the woods, but the ocean calls to me. I’ve tried to share with my children, the beauty and wonder of the world as I’ve experienced it. So my daughter Katie and I hire a couple of kids in [...]
Trump to Allow China to Destroy US Manufacturing Again Under His Energy Policy?
President Elect, Trump, is almost right. He believes that Global Warming is a Chinese hoax. But as usual, he's got got it exactly wrong. The sound bite works well by blaming another country, but the issue is complex. The US could develop a straightforward and strategic energy policy that could [...]
Sequoia – A Good Day
It’s early morning in Crescent Meadow. Dew sits on the grass. While other hikers are still asleep in their tents, I walk silently on the soft earth among the fallen giants. The redwoods here can reach twenty feet in diameter and live to be over 2000 years old. They’ve been [...]
My 2016 Commencement Address – Why Does the Last Duck Quack?
I am sitting in the middle of the Temperance River on a large bolder. It’s late fall, and there is the edge of winter in a light north breeze. The sun is warm and there are a few white cotton clouds in a too blue sky. Water the color [...]
Rigged?
I once had someone tell me that the major reason they didn’t believe in climate change was that scientists would do or say anything to get grant money. That their motivation was simple greed. The system was rigged. I was a little surprised. In my experience, we humans are not [...]
Kiss Your Coffee Goodbye?
We are three hours south of Medellin, Colombia crossing the Cauca River and heading into the mountains. The Cauca is muddy and roiling from the rains and licks the bottom of the one lane bridge. Another hour and one muffler later, we are still struggling up a two track into [...]
A Good Day: Beluga
Once, when distance meant time, I traveled by train from Winnipeg to Churchill on Hudson Bay. It was a two-day trip though endless taiga forests comforting in their vastness. I spent time meditating on how small and insignificant we humans are in relation to the world. Churchill was a one [...]
Texas
Oil Jack rabbit rig and wind farm in Texas. In my youth I used to own a T-Shirt that said, “Give Texas Back to Mexico.” I admit it was rude, I apologize, and I’ve changed my mind! Texas has an image as a big tough, independent and proud [...]
The Election and November Raspberries
It’s a sunny day. I woke up to two significant events. The first is president elect Donald Trump. The second is my raspberry patch. I have late bearing raspberries and they are a source of pleasure for me. I feel like I am getting something directly from nature when they [...]
A Good Day: Grizzlies and Caribou
Four hundred and fifty miles from nowhere, at the edge of the arctic circle, we started downriver on our fourteenth day. Or it might have been the twentieth. One loses track of time in the wilderness where there are no calendars or weekends. We are on the Thelon River. It [...]
Why I Am an Environmentalist
I grew up as a feral child. I know I don’t look much like Tarzan, but I also lost my parents at a very young age. I wasn’t raised by apes or wolves, but had the fortune to live in a place of lakes, rivers, swamps and forests. This was [...]
Act III: Coming Out as an Environmentalist
I recently updated my Linkedin profile to add the term Environmentalist. After years of building businesses, including a recent Healthcare startup, I am focusing my future energies on the environment. Specifically, fighting climate change and global warming through renewable clean energy solutions. Working for the environment isn’t particularly unique, but [...]
